I imagined a picture of Daring Do roosting on the back of a very annoyed Tarnish.
Suffice to say, I want this to be drawn.

I too now want this to be drawn
Ah, I missed this.

I just spent a lot of time reworking the survival-horror arc.
Best I could do on short notice.

Better to wait and release something you're happy with amirite?
Ok, wait....Pinny is dead literally, or is it a metaphore for.her absence through Teapot's childhood ?

The survival horror arc was never fully fleshed out when I started the story. I had the prologue, and I had the end, but some of the middle was just a framework and nothing else.

Pinny is not dead, we see her in stories that take place later in the time line.
Kudz is refering to Tarnish's banishment, and how his talent affected his mother into essentially not loving him anymore. He lost her in the emotional sense, not the physical one.
Hm Just to know... how old is Daring Do?
Terra, go to bed.
i'm half wondering whether caballeron and daring are related or were married

Old enough to know better, still too young to care.
I'm sorry, I'm very much not with Daring on this. I'm not saying that I'm entirely on Tarnish's side on this either, but really...fictional worlds would be better off if some of their villains ended up dead. I don't think that heroes should be deliberately trying to gun down bad guys Punisher style, but at the very least, they should adopt a more Batman Begins attitude in that if the villain ends up in a potentially lethal situation, especially if it's a result of their own plans being thwarted, that the hero is under no obligation, and in fact it may probably be the better choice, NOT to save them. This goes double if the villain is actually intending to do, or is in the process of doing, something that would put innocents in harms way.
Daring can go on and on about being 'better' than the bad guys, but, say, what if Ahuizohtal's next scheme activates some sort of ancient doomsday weapon that takes a chunk out of Manehatten while she was trying to stop him in a nonlethal way, when putting a bullet between his eyes would have stopped him before that could happen? I'd really love to see if she had the balls to look one of the survivors in the eyes and explain that their friends and/or family are dead because she was 'better than that.'
TL;DR, I don't believe heroes should be out for blood, but I don't believe they should be under any obligation to worry about the villain's well being when stopping them.

Because it's only AFTER all the death that ponies would look at Daring to blame for the loss of innocent lives, for not killing Ahuizotl to stop him before he could.
If she killed him BEFORE he could, all those same legions of ponies would be calling her wild, a loose cannon, a murderer. Dangerous, to be watched or put down. Who knows who she's going to kill next?
I believe in the Punisher-style approach to villains, but Daring is also something of a public figure. If she does the right thing and the common pony doesn't agree, then she's still the bad guy. The Marvel Civil War comics (fuck the movie) taught me a lot about that, and how much I hate that it's true.

I going to sum this whole argument with a quote "Justice is a weak emotion, it's mean changes with the times." I personally find the concepts of good and evil way too ridged when argued in the way that ponies portray. Other people define what is good and evil which means there is nothing truly good or evil outside of cases of Mala per Mala or Bel per Bel.
Last two phrases- First one was a legal term meaning Bad because it's bad, the second one means Good because it's Good. Because I couldn't think of an actual term and resorted to what I could remember of latin prefixes.
